listened to Incesticide for the first time and its pretty fire

Nirvana Related

I stole the CD from my mom a few months back, just listened to it last night. Honestly, a pretty underrated album, one of my favorites now.

Aneurysm should have been on nevermind Arguably a top 5 nirvana song

I agree with half this post.

(I think Nevermind has such a strong mix of songs, that aren’t quite the same vibe as Aneurysm. You’d have to close on it and even then it’s not quite right. Amazing song as it is, it would fit better with Tourette’s and RFUS on In Utero imo.)

Incesticide was the very first Nirvana I ever heard. It holds a dear place in my heart. Dive, SLIVER, Turn around, Molly's lips, Mexican seafood, hairspray queen, aero zeppelin, aneurysm are still some of my absolute favorite songs.

incesticide is REALLY underrated, noone really talks about it because it's a compilation of outtakes and b-sides, and it wasn't promoted as much as their other works, there are many songs on it which deserve huge fame and attention, it's honestly one of nirvana's best works. it stands out from the rest of their albums, but in a really good way

My favourite Nirvana record, Kurt at it's punkest

Yeah calling music like nirvana fire is just stupid.

u/Particular-Base-7091 avatar

why?

u/Ballsballsballshehe avatar

Well calling something “fire” is a term used in new hip hop/rap which I still don’t get for describing that but anyways, calling something like nirvana just sounds stupid and doesn’t make any sense, it’s like going and being like “hey have you heard that band the Beatles? They have some fire music” like really?

I think it's fantastic - as good a work as the main three, just different, less focused (obviously) -- just a lot more fun and freewheeling due to it being a compilation. I love the cover songs, it makes me think of old Beatles records. Honestly I think the trend of bonus tracks and deluxe editions have robbed newer bands of similar compilations, which is a shame. I listen to Incesticide as much as the main discography.

Dive and Aneurysm are the bangers for me

Mexican Seafood carries the whole album fr fr

Personally I think it's their best record.

The covers they do are some of their better songs.
